Ridgecrest of McCandless

I can’t say enough positive things about this facility especially the memory care unit. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the warmth, compassion, and genuine dedication of all of the staff. This team consistently goes above and beyond. Special recognition goes to the director, Karli, whose leadership clearly sets the tone for the entire unit. She is approachable, knowledgeable, and deeply committed to both residents and their families. Karli is always willing to listen, problem-solve, and ensure that each resident receives the highest quality of care

My mom and sister live at Ridgecrest Senior Living of McCandless. They have been there for about a year and a half and they require a lot of care and services. The care is better than anywhere else hands down. They are treated like family members by the staff/caregivers. It’s really amazing considering how hard it is to get any staff right now in this business. Our positive experience really started on day one with our interview when Melissa met with us. We were so impressed and it carries through to all the staff—nurses, aides, even dining room staff. They are open to family feedback and work with us to solve challenges. They are truly our saviors. If not for Ridgecrest, my sister would be in a nursing home. Thank you to all!!

Ridgecrest was exactly right for my Mom. She was able to live independently as if in an apartment building but still have support when she needed it. As her condition progressed, she was able to get more help without having to relocate. The staff is very caring, respectful, and attentive. The head nurses are experienced and energetic and really connect with my Mom to encourage her to follow her care plan. As a relative, I felt at ease knowing my Mom could enjoy her apartment and still be safe.
